In preparation for the mind-boggling docu-essay ROOM 237, we could not be happier to bring you one of the stone-cold greatest horror movies of all time. The movie that Stephen King dismissed as work by a director that “thinks too much and feels too little” – THE SHINING. Jack Torrance is a disgraced teacher, recovering alcoholic and would-be writer who decides to take the job of tending for The Overlook Hotel during the winter months. He brings his wife and young son with him, looking forward to a solitude conducive to finishing his novel. But The Overlook Hotel has other plans for him. Starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd & Scatman Crothers. Dir: Stanley Kubrick. 1980. 144 mins. 9:15pm
